1 2 Bridge Measurement 2.1 INTRODUCTION Bridges are often used for the precision measurement of component values, like resistance, inductance, capacitance, etc. The simplest form of a bridge circuit consists of a network of four resistance arms forming a closed circuit as shown in Fig A source of current is applied to two opposite junctions and a current detector is connected to other two junctions. The bridge circuit operates on null detection principle and uses the principle of comparison measurement methods. It compares the value of an unknown component with that of an accurately known standard component. Thus, the accuracy of measurement depends on the bridge and not on the null detector. When no current flows through the null detector, the bridge is said to be balanced. The relationship between the component values of the four arms of the bridge at the balancing is called balancing condition or balancing equation. Balancing equation gives up the value of the unknown component. Fig. 2.1 General form of a bridge circuit Advantages of Bridge Circuit The various advantages of a bridge circuit are: 1. The balance equation is independent of the source voltage magnitude and its impedance.
2 Bridge Measurement 53 Wheatstone Bridge under Small Unbalance As discussed in previous section different galvanometers have different current/voltage sensitivities. Hence, in order to determine whether the galvanometer has the required sensitivity to detect an unbalance condition the bridge circuit can be solved for a small unbalance by converting the Wheatstone bridge into its equivalent Thevenin s circuit. Let us consider the bridge is balanced, when the branch resistances are R 1, R 2, R 3 and R X, so that at balance R 1 R 3 R X = R 2 Let the resistance R X be changed to DR X creating an unbalance. Due to this an emf e 1 has appeared across the galvanometer. To compute this emf let us use the Thevenin s method. With galvanometer branch open, the open circuit voltage drop between points b and d is V oc. At balance E E ab = I 1 R 1, I 1 = I 2 = E R 1 fi E ab = (2.9) E E ad = I 3 (R X + DR X ), I 3 = I 4 = R 3 + R X + DR X E(R X + DR X ) fi E ad = (2.10) R 3 + R X + DR X Fig. 2.3 Wheatstone bridge under unbalance condition V oc = V ad = V TH = E ad E ab = E R [ X + DR X R 1 R 3 + R X + DR X ] (2.11)
3 Bridge Measurement 55 S v E fi S B = R 3 + R X + 2 R X R 3 (2.13) Thus, the bridge sensitivity depends on the bridge parameter the supply voltage and the voltage sensitivity of the galvanometer. Thevenin Equivalent Circuit (Under Balance Case) The Thevenin equivalent resistance can be found by looking back into the terminal b-d and replacing the source by its internal resistance (if internal resistance is very low the source is replaced by short circuiting the terminal a-c) as shown in Fig. (2.4). Fig. 2.4 (a) Equivalent resistance (R TH ) between b and d, (b) Thevenin equivalent circuit for Wheatstone bridge R TH = (R 1 R 2 ) + (R 3 R X ) = R 1 + R 3 (2.14) R 3 + R X and V TH = V oc = E ad E ab (R X is not changed by DR X ) = I 2 R X I 1 R 1 = V TH = E R [ X R 3 + R X E R X R 3 + R X R 1 ] E R 1 If R g is the galvanometer resistance and I g is the galvanometer current, then we have I g = V TH R TH + R g (2.15) Galvanometer Current (Unbalance Case) Let the resistance R X be changed by DR X, such that the arm resistance is R X + DR X and creating an unbalance. From Eqn. (2.12)
4 56 Circuit Fundamentals and Basic Electronics V TH = E R 3 DR X (R 3 + R X ) 2 Now equivalent resistance looking back into the terminals b and d. R eq = R TH = (R 1 R 2 ) + (R 3 R X + DR X ) = R 3 (R X + DR X ) + R 1 R 2 R 3 + R X + DR X Since DR X << R 3, R 4, neglecting DR X in the above equation R TH = Since I g = R 3 R X + R 1 R 2 (2.16) R 3 + R X V TH R TH + R g (2.17) Now, if R X = R 1 = R 2 = R 3 = R, we have from Eqns. (2.15) and (2.16) I g = E R DR X 4R 2 R + R g I g = E DR X 4R (R + R g ) (2.18) Bridge Sensitivity in Terms of Current Sensitivity of Galvanometer Let a bridge be unbalanced by changing R X to R X + DR X. Due to this an emf e has appeared across galvanometer which is basically equal to the Thevenin equivalent voltage between the galvanometer nodes. Hence, the deflection of the galvanometer q = S V e = S V V TH = S V E R 3 DR X (2.19) (R 3 + R X ) 2 The current sensitivity of galvanometer is expressed as S i S V = R TH + R g Hence, from equation S i E R 3 DR X q = (2.20) (R TH + R g ) (R 3 + R X ) 2
5 58 Circuit Fundamentals and Basic Electronics errors. The consideration of effect of contact and lead resistances is the basic purpose of Kelvin bridge. So that it provides increased accuracy for measurement of low value resistances Fig. 2.5 shows the basic circuit of Kelvin bridge. Fig. 2.5 Kelvin bridge The resistance R l represents the resistance of connecting leads from R X to R 3. The R X is unknown resistance to be measured. Two possible galvanometer connections are indicated by dotted lines either to point m or to point o. When the galvanometer is connected to point m, the lead resistance R l is added to the unknown resistance value resulting in high value of unknown resistance R X. On the other hand, if the galvanometer is connected to point o, the lead resistance R l is added to standard resistance R 3, resulting too low value of unknown resistance R X. If the galvanometer is connected to an intermediate point say n (as shown by dark line), such that the ratio of the lead resistance from point m to n and that from o to n is equal to the ratio of R 1 and R 2, i.e., R mn = R 1 (2.22) R on R 2 The Bridge balance equation is given as (R X + R mn ) R 2 = R 1 (R 3 + R on ) (2.23) get Since R 3 and R X are changed to R 3 + R on and R X + R mn respectively, from Eqn. (2.22), we Since R l = R mn + R on R mn + 1 = R R on R 2 = R mn + R on R = 1 + R 2 (2.24) R on R 2
6 Bridge Measurement 59 Hence, from Eqn. (2.24), we get R l R = 1 + R 2 R on R 2 R 2 fi R on = R R 1 + R l (2.25) 2 Hence, R mn = R l R on = R R l ( 1 ) (2.26) Substituting the value of R mn and R on in Eqn. (2.23), we get ( R X + R l R 1 ) R 2 = R 1 ( R 3 + R 2 R l ) R l R 1 R X + = R 1 R 3 + R 1 R 2 R 2 R 1 R 3 R X = (2.27) R 2 Equation (2.27) represents the balance equation for Wheatstone bridge and hence eliminating the resistance of connecting leads from point m to o. However, practically it is very difficult to determine the intermediate point n. The modified form of Kelvin bridge is termed Kelvin double bridge Kelvin Double Bridge The modified form of Kelvin bridge is shown in Fig The two actual resistances of correct ratio are connected between point m and o. The galvanometer is connected at the junction of these resistances. Due to the introduction of second set of ratio arms, this bridge is termed Kelvin double bridge. Fig. 2.6 Kelvin double bridge
7 60 Circuit Fundamentals and Basic Electronics The first set of ratio arm is R 1 and R 2 and the second set of ratio arm is r 1 and r 2. The galvanometer is connected to point n such as to eliminate the effect of connecting lead of resistance R l between the unknown resistance R X and standard resistance R 3. The ratio of r 1 /r 2 is made equal to R 1 /R 2. At bridge balance condition the current through galvanometer is zero, i.e., the voltage drop between point a to b (E ab ) is equal to the voltage drop between the point a-m-n i.e. E amn E ab = = R 1 E R 1 i[r X + R y (r 1 + r 2 ) + R 3 ] and = R 1 i [ R X + R y (r 1 + r 2 ) ] + R R y + r 1 + r (2.28) 3 2 E amn = E am + E r1 [ i r 1 [ = ir X + (r 1 + r 2 )R ] y (r 1 + r 2 ) r 1 + r 2 + R y = ir X + i r 1 R y r 1 + r 2 + R y ] At bridge balance = i [ R X + r 1 R X R y + r 1 + r 2 ] (2.29) E ab = E amn R 1 [ R R 1 + R X + R 3 + R y (r 1 + r 2 ) ] 2 (R y + r 1 + r 2 ) = R X + r 1 R Y R y + r 1 + r 2 R R X ( 2 ) = R 1 R 3 ( ) + r 2 R y R y + r 1 + r 2 [ R 1 r 2 R 2 r 1 ( )r 2 ] R 1 R 3 r fi R X = 2 R + y R 2 R y + r 1 + r 2 [ R 1 r 1 R 2 r 2 ] (2.30)
8 Bridge Measurement 61 Since R 1 = r 1 R 2 r 2 fi R X = R 1 R 3 R 2 (2.31) The above equation represents the standard Wheatstone bridge balance equation. Since the resistance r 1, r 2, and R y are not present in this equation. Hence, the effect of lead and contact resistance is completely eliminated. In typical Kelvin s bridge the range of resistance lies between 0.1 mw and 1.0 W, with accuracy of ± 0.05% to ± 0.2%. Example 2.2 Kelvin double bridge uses: Standard resistance = 100 mw Inner ratio arms = 15 W and 30 W Outer ratio arms = 40 W and 60 W If the resistance of the connecting leads from standard to unknown resistance is 800 mw. Calculate the unknown resistance under this condition. Solution Given R 1 = 40 W, R 2 = 60 W, R 3 = 100 mw From equation 2.30 r 1 = 15 W, r 2 = 30 W, R y = 800 mw R X = R 1 R 3 r 2 R + y R 2 R y + r 1 + r 2 [ R 1 r 1 R 2 r 2 ] = [ 40 ( ) ] = [0.16] = W = mw 2.4 HIGH RESISTANCE MEASUREMENT BRIDGE The measurement of high resistance of the order of W or more is often required in electrical equipment. For example, (i) insulation resistance of components like machines, cables, (ii) leakage resistance of capacitors, (iii) resistance of high circuit elements like vacuum tube circuits, etc. Because of very high resistance, current, flowing through the measuring circuit is low, which is
9 62 Circuit Fundamentals and Basic Electronics very difficult to sense. Normal Wheatstone bridge used for measurement of resistances is not suitable for this purpose due to the leakage current around the test specimen becomes of the same order as through the specimen itself or quite high compared to it. For high resistance measurement, high voltage source is used to obtain sufficient current and galvanometer deflection. As a result leakage current is also increased. In order to avoid the leakage current effect in the measuring circuit, guard circuits are generally used. The high resistance to be measured is mounted on two insulating posts which in turn are mounted on a metal platform known as guard point. The guard point is electrically connected to the junction of the ratio arms of the bridge circuit. Due to this insulating posts become electrically parallel to the resistances of the ratio arm resistance. Hence, leakage resistance R la is parallel to R 1 and R lb to R 2. Effectively the unknown resistance R X to be measured has three terminals marked (a), (b) and (c) as shown in Fig With R la and R lb very large, resistances R 1 and R 2, whom they are paralleling, are not much affected as R 1 and R 2 are not made very large, like R 3 which again is selectable. The unknown resistance R X is obtained with null balance method and an amplifier is used to drive the display meter which is basically a null detection. Fig. 2.7 High resistance measurement bridge Example 2.3 (a) What would be the error in measuring a high resistance of 10 9 W if the leakage resistances R a and R b are W each but the guard point arrangement is not used? (b) If the leakage resistances are the same as the unknown resistance, what would be the error. Solution (a) In the absence of the guard point arrangement, two W resistances are in series and become parallel to the 10 9 W resistance. Hence, the effective unknown resistance R X = (1 + 20) = W The error = ( ) = 5%
10 Bridge Measurement 63 (b) In this case, the effective unknown resistance 10 R X = = W 10 9 (1 + 2) The error = ( ) = 33.3% 2.5 AC BRIDGES AND THEIR APPLICATIONS An ac bridge similar to dc bridges consists of four arms, an ac source of excitation at the desired frequency and a null detector. For measurements at low frequencies the power line may be used as a source of excitation whereas at higher frequencies generally, an oscillator is used as a source. The operating frequencies of these oscillators are constant and easily adjustable. A typical oscillator has a frequency range of 40 Hz to 125 khz with a power output of 7W headphones, vibrational galvanometer and tuneable amplifier circuits are generally used as a null detector for ac bridges. The headphones are used as a detector at the frequency of 250 Hz to 3-4 khz. While working with single frequency a tuned detector is the most sensitive detector. Vibrational galvanometers are useful for low audio frequency range from 5 Hz to 1 khz, but are commonly used below 200 Hz. Tuneable amplifier detectors are used for frequency range of 10 Hz to 100 Hz General Equation for Bridge Balance Let us consider a general form of an ac bridge as shown in Fig The bridge circuit consists of a network of four impedance arms z 1, z 2, z 3 and z 4 respectively, forming a closed circuit. For bridge balance, the potential of point b must be same as the potential of point d. These potentials must be equal in terms of amplitude as well as phase. Thus, the voltage drop from a to b must be equal to voltage drop across a to d, in both magnitude and phase for the bridge balance, i.e. E 1 = E 3 fi i 1 Z 1 = i 3 Z 3 (i) Also at balance i 1 = i 2 = and i 3 = i 4 = Hence, from Eqn. (i), we have E Z 1 + Z 2 E Z 3 + Z 4
11 64 Circuit Fundamentals and Basic Electronics Fig. 2.8 Basic ac bridge circuit E Z 1 = E Z 3 Z 1 + Z 2 Z 3 + Z 4 fi Z 1 Z 4 = Z 2 Z 3 (2.32) Equation (2.32) is the equation for balance of ac bridge in the impedance form. The balance equation in the admittance (reciprocal of impedance) form can be expressed as 1 = 1 Y 1 Y 4 Y 2 Y 3 fi Y 1 Y 4 = Y 2 Y 3 (2.33) In the polar form the impedance Z can be written as Z = Z q where Z represents the impedance and q represents the phase angle of complex impedance Z. Hence, the bridge arm impedances in polar form can be expressed as Z 1 = Z 1 q 1 Z 2 = Z 2 q 2 Z 3 = Z 3 q 3 Z 4 = Z 4 q 4 where Z 1, Z 2, Z 3 and Z 4 are the magnitudes and q 1, q 2, q 3, and q 4 are the phase angles. Hence, the balance equation in polar form representation will be
12 Bridge Measurement 65 (Z 1 q 1 ) (Z 4 q 4 ) = (Z 2 q 2 ) (Z 3 q 3 ) (2.34) Since, in complex number multiplication the magnitudes are multiplied and the phase angles are added, the equation can be written as Z 1 Z 4 ( q 1 + q 4 ) = Z 2 Z 3 ( q 2 + q 3 ) (2.35) i.e. fi Z 1 Z 4 = Z 2 Z 3 and q 1 + q 4 = q 2 + q 3 Hence, from above equation (2.35), the two conditions must be satisfied for bridge balance. (i) The product of the magnitudes of the opposite arms must be equal. (ii) The sum of phase angles of the opposite arms must be equal. The value of phase angles depends on the type of components of individual impedance. For inductive impedance the phase angles are positive and for capacitive impedance the phase angles are negative, i.e., Z L = R + jx L = Z L + q where Z C = R jx C = Z C q X L = 2pfL W X C = 1 2p fc W f = operating frequency Example 2.4 The four impedances of an ac bridge as shown in Fig. 2.8 are Z 1 = º W, Z 2 = º W, Z 3 = 45 20º W Z 4 = 30 30º W. Find out whether the bridge is balanced or not. Solution As we know in polar co-ordinate system representation, the bridge balance conditions are Z 1 Z 4 = Z 2 Z 3 and Thus, q 1 + q 4 = q 2 + q 3 Z 1 Z 4 = = W Z 2 Z 3 = = W also q 1 + q 4 = 40º + 30º = 70º
13 66 Circuit Fundamentals and Basic Electronics q 2 + q 3 = 90º + 20º = 70º This indicates that phase relationship is satisfied whereas magnitude condition is not satisfied. Hence, bridge is unbalanced Schering Bridge (Measurement of Capacitance) This is the most common bridge used for measurement of unknown capacitance, dielectric loss, relative permittivity and power factor. Figure 2.9 shows the basic circuit arrangement of the bridge and its phasor diagram under balance conditions. Fig. 2.9 (a) Schering bridge for measurement of capacitance (b) Phasor diagram Two branches consist of non-inductive resistance R 3 and a standard capacitor C 2. The standard capacitor is usually a high-quality mica capacitor (low-loss) for general measurement or an air capacitor (having very stable value and a very small elastic field) for insulation measurement. One of the arms consists of a variable capacitor connected in parallel with a variable non-inductive resistance R 4. The remaining arm consists of unknown capacitor C X whose capacitance is to be determined. Connected in series with a resistance R X to represent loss in the capacitance C X, the impedance of four arms are 1 Z 1 = ( R x + jwc x ) Z 2 = 1 ( jwc 1 ) Z 3 = R 3
14 68 Circuit Fundamentals and Basic Electronics we obtain that the dissipation factor is the reciprocal of the quality factor Q and therefore Q = 1 D (2.41) Hence, the dissipation factor tells us about the quality of the capacitor, i.e., how close the phase angle of the capacitor is to the ideal value 90º. Substituting the value of C x and R x in Eqn. (2.39), we have R 4 C 2 D = w C 4 R 3 fi D = wr R 3 C 4 C 4 (2.42) 2 If the frequency and resistor R 4 in Schering bridge is fixed, the capacitor C 4 can be calibrated to read the dissipation factor directly. Example 2.5 An ac bridge was made up as follows: arm ab, a capacitor of 0.8 mf in parallel with 1 kw resistance, bc a resistance of 3 kw, arm cd an unknown capacitor C x and R x in series, arm da a capacitance of 0.4 mf. The supply at 1 khz is connected across bd and a detector across ac. Determine the value of unknown capacitance C x, unknown series resistance R x and dissipation factor. Solution If we draw the sketch of the given problem we find the given ac bridge is Schering bridge as shown below. Hence, R 3 = 3 kw, C 2 = 0.4 mf, C 4 = 0.8 mf, R 4 = 1 kw, w = 1 khz R x = C 4 R 3 C 3 10 = = 6 kw
15 Bridge Measurement 69 C x = R 4 C 2 R 3 = = F Dissipation factor D = wc x R x = 2p f C x R x = = High Voltage Schering Bridge The Schering bridge is widely used for measurement of small capacitance and dissipation factor, and is then usually supplied from a high voltage or a high frequency source. Figure 2.10 shows the circuit arrangement for high voltage Schering bridge. The bridge is connected to a high voltage supply through transformer usually at 50 Hz. The vibrational galvanometer is used as a detector. Fig 2.10 High voltage Schering bridge The capacitors designed for high voltage are connected in arms ab and ad. The impedance of these two arms is kept very high in comparison to the other two arms bc and cd, so that major portion of the potential drop will be in the arms ab and ad and very small potential drop occurs
16 70 Circuit Fundamentals and Basic Electronics in the arms bc and cd. In order to maintain this, the point c is earthed. Hence, for the safety of the operator it is advantageous to locate the controls in arms bc and cd. These controls should be and are at low potential with respect to earth. For the same reason detector is also at low potential. A spark gap (set to breakdown about 100 V) is connected across arms bc and cd in order to prevent high voltage appearing across arms bc and cd in the case of breakdown of either of the high voltage capacitor. Earth screens are provided in order to avoid errors caused due to inter-capacitance between high and low impedance arms of the bridge Wien Bridge (Measurement of Frequency) The Wien s bridge is generally known as a frequency determining bridge. Wien s bridge finds its application in various useful circuit. For example, it is used in audio and high frequency oscillators as the frequency determining device. It is used as notch filter in harmonic distortion analyzer. It can also be used for the measurement of an unknown capacitor with great accuracy. Figure (2.11) shows the circuit arrangement of Wien bridge under balance condition. Two branches (bc and cd) consist of non-inductive resistances R 3 and R 4. One of the arms (ab) consists of a capacitor C 1 connected in parallel to the non-inductive resistor R 1. The adjoining arm (bc) has a series combination of capacitor C 2 and resistor R 2. A source of current is applied to two opposite junctions across a and c and null detector is connected to other two junctions b and d. Hence, the impedances of four arms are Fig Wien bridge 1 Z 1 = ( R 1 jwc 1 ) = R jwc 1 R 1 1 Z 2 = R 2 + jwc 2
17 72 Circuit Fundamentals and Basic Electronics Example 2.6 The arms of a four-arm bridge a, b, c and d supplied with sinusoidal voltage have the following values. arm ab: A resistance of 800 W in parallel with a capacitance of 2 mf arm bc: 400 W resistance arm cd: 1 kw resistance arm da: A resistance R 2 in series with 2 mf capacitance Determine the value of R 2 and frequency at which the bridge will balance. Solution If we draw the sketch of the given problem, we find that given ac bridge is Wien bridge as shown below. Hence, from balance equation R 4 = R 2 + C 1 R 3 R 1 C 2 fi R 2 = ( R 4 C 1 R 3 C 2 ) R = ( ) 6 = 1.2 kw 1 and f = 2p = 1 R 1 R 2 C 1 C 2 2p = 72.6 Hz
18 Bridge Measurement Maxwell Bridge (Measurement of Inductance) Maxwell bridge can be used to measure inductance by comparison either with a variable standard self-inductance or with a standard variable capacitance. These two measurement methods can be done by using two different Maxwell bridge forms. Maxwell Inductance Bridge In this bridge arrangement the value of unknown inductance is measured by comparison with a variable standard self-inductance. Figure 2.12 shows the circuit arrangement and phasor diagram for Maxwell s inductance bridge under balance condition. Two branches bc and cd consist of non-inductive resistance R 3 and R 4. One of the arms ad consists of variable inductance L 2 of fixed internal resistance r 2 connected in series with variable resistance R 2. The remaining arm ab consists of unknown inductance L x of resistance R x. A source of current is applied to two opposite junctions across ac and a null detector is connected to the other two junctions b and d. Fig (a) Maxwell inductance bridge (b) Phasor diagram Hence, the impedances of four arms are Z 1 = R x + jwl x Z 2 = R 2 + r 2 + jwl 2 Z 3 = R 3 Z 4 = R 4
19 74 Circuit Fundamentals and Basic Electronics At balance we get Z 1 Z 4 = Z 2 Z 3 fi (R x + jwl x ) R 4 = (R 2 + r 2 + jwl 2 ) R 3 R x R 4 + jwl x R 4 = (R 2 + r 2 ) R 3 + jwl 2 R 3 (2.49) Equating real and imaginary term in the above equation, we have R 3 R x = (R R 2 + r 2 ) (2.50) 4 R 3 L x = L R 2 (2.51) 4 We observe that the two conditions for bridge balance Eqn. (2.50) and Eqn. (2.51) result in an expression determining the unknown inductance value by comparison with variable inductance L 2 of fixed resistance r 2. The resistance r 2 is a decade resistance box Maxwell Inductance Capacitance Bridge In this bridge arrangement, the value of unknown inductance is measured by comparison with a variable standard capacitor. Figure 2.13 shows its circuit arrangement and phasor diagram. Two arms bc and ad consist of non-inductive resistance R 2 and R 3. One of the arms ac consists of variable standard capacitor C 4 connected in parallel to a non-inductive resistance R 4. The remaining arm ab consists of unknown inductance L x of effective resistance R x. A source of current is applied to two opposite junctions across ac and a null detector is connected to the other two junctions b and d. Hence, the impedances of four arms are Z 1 = R x + jwl x Z 2 = R 2 Z 3 = R 3 At balance we get Z 4 = R 4 1 = R 4 jwc jwc 4 R 4 (R x + jwl x ) Z 1 Z 4 = Z 2 Z 3 R jwc 4 R 4 = R 2 R 3 = R x R 4 + jwl x R 4 = R 2 R 3 + jwc 4 R 2 R 3 R 4 (2.52)
20 Bridge Measurement 75 Equating real and imaginary terms in Eqn. (2.52), we have R 2 R 3 R x = (2.53) R 4 L x = R 2 R 3 C 4 (2.54) Hence, from the above condition for bridge balance the unknown inductance value can be determined by comparison with variable standard capacitor. The quality factor of the coil is given by wl x Q = = wr 2 R 3 C 4 R x ( R 2R 3 R 4 ) Q = wr 4 C 4 Fig (a) Maxwell inductance capacitance bridge Advantages 1. The balance equation is independent of losses associated with inductance. 2. The frequency does not appear in any of the two balance equations. 3. The scale of resistance can be calibrated to read inductance directly. 4. It is very useful for measurement of wide range of inductances at power and audio frequency.
21 Bridge Measurement 77 Fig (a) Anderson bridge Hence, the impedance of four arms are Z 1 = R x + R L + jwl x Z 2 = R 2 Z 3 = R 3 Z 4 = R 4 and impedance between dc At balance, we have Z dc = r + 1 jwc I 1 = I 3 I 2 = I 4 + I c E 1 = E 2 Since the capacitor C is connected between point c and e. Hence, the voltage drop across the capacitor and R 3 will be equal, i.e. I 3 R 3 = I C 1 jwc
22 Bridge Measurement 79 Advantages Fig (b) Phasor diagram 1. It can be used for precise measurement of inductance over a wide range of values. 2. A fixed capacitor is used instead of variable capacitor as in the case of Maxwell bridge. Hence, it is cost effective. 3. It can also be used for accurate measurement of capacitance in terms of inductance. 4. The balance can be easily obtained in Anderson bridge than in Maxwell bridge for low Q-coils. Disadvantages 1. The bridge circuit is more complicated than other bridges. 2. It requires more number of components. 3. Increased occuputational complexity. 4. Bridge cannot be easily shielded due to additional junction point. EXERCISE Short Answer Type Questions 1. What is a bridge circuit? 2. Explain the applications and advantages of bridge circuits? 3.
